OC Brideworld Bridal Expo 6-10-12

We spent last Sunday with hundreds of excited brides-to-be (and a few grooms-to-be) at the Brideworld Bridal Expo at the Orange County Fair & Event Center.  The brides were treated to a display of a pink, orange, purple and light green color scheme within our floral arrangements and linen/rental choices.

The sweetheart table display at our booth showed a light green (celadon) tablecloth with black chiavari chairs, silver chargers with black napkins and included a box floral arrangement of Peonies, Hydrangea & Roses as well as 2 beautiful bouquets, one simple & elegant (Mango Calla Lilies) and the other a bit more vintage with some "bling" (Hydrangea, Peonies, Succulents, Orchids & Dusty Miller).  We also showcased the same color/flower scheme in our 2 larger centerpiece mockups; 1 was a round topper to a trumpet vase (Hydrangea, Peonies & Roses), crystals in the bottom of the vase and was sat atop a mirrored platform box; the other was geared towards our Asian clients utilizing a lazy susan for their dinner reception and utilized an eiffel tower vase with a round topper (Hydrangea, Roses & Dahlias). We also had a collection of smaller, low arrangements that can be interchanged with the tall arrangements or clustered together for a more voluminous centerpiece.

The sweetheart display over at the Classic Party Rentals embraced the tangerine/oranges with some pops of white & green.  We also went a bit more "organic" by including some small Succulents amongst the Hydrangea, Dahlias & Spray Roses in the 2 small square arrangements. We finished the look off with a 3-tiered floating candle display between the 2 arrangements.

We enjoyed meeting and getting to know all the brides and hope our design, color and floral ideas inspired everyone as much as we enjoyed creating them!

Grace + Cyrus 6-2-12 at the Riviera Resort in Palm Springs

We had the pleasure of being a big part of Grace & Cyrus' wedding this past Saturday at the Riviera Resort in Palm Springs.  Christine was the Ceremony Officiant, we provided the Flowers for the wedding and Christine, Amber & Corina coordinated the day's activities.  We can't thank the staff and Patty Gleeson at the Riviera enough for all of their hard work in the super hot temperatures this weekend.  The couple and all of their guests, most from Europe (Italy) had a great time at this travel-themed wedding in the desert.  The mother of the bride & her family hand-filled homemade cannolis on site during the reception for guests to enjoy along with the platters and more platters of yummy Italian cookies and a cute display of cupcakes & Bride/Groom Airplane-topped cake.
Here is a sneak peek at some of photos from our cameras....professional photos to come soon!
